If you will believe it, I am engaged ; no nonsense, but really, truly, and pusitively engaged to be married ; and between our selves, lam not quite sure I like it. It is not Clara's fault; she is a line girl, and I am proud to think she ha* accepted me; and if we would be married at once it would t all right, I suppose. But then is a pnrftssion to be nettled npon, and get fixed in; far, though i shall inherit a little property when 1 come of see, my guardian nays that it will not be sufficient without wine addition, and by tbc time 1 am ready to keep a wifV* Clara will be so much elder. Bssid& all which, now that the novelty bas worn offi and I am able to think se riously a bent "the matter, 1 am not so surb that 1 want .to be married at all; not till I am quite an elderly nun—that is to say, thirty or so. It m not that lam unro maatic: on the contrary. 1 think romance ia capital—in a bonk; but in real life ro mance does not look so romantic, after the first; at least, so it seems to me. I went to stay with Aunt Bouwick, at Carfax, a rising watering place on the Yorkshire coast, last summer. Aunt Bon wick is a gay old ladv, and cannot bear to be without plenty of people about her, so she lives principally at hoarding-bouses, and it was at Carleton Mansion tbat I visited her. I liked it; the feeding was very good, better than wbat you get in lodgings, where one has to dine so often off cold meat or bash ; ami tbo people were great fun. Each was so anxious to let the rest know that be or she was a swell, or con nected with a swell; some of them made little speeches about themselves and their belongings, quite like the heroes in Homer " I am so-and-so, the son of so-and-so." But still the bow was not always beat, and we were social enough at times. We played at Pope Joan for counters, at three pence a dozen, and one old lady would not cut in because she thought intrigue between the queen and krave not only imfwoper, but savoring of democratic scandal. So we changed the game to vingt-et-un to please ber, and I will take in affidavit that she cheated. Clara was staying at the boarding-house all by herself. She lived with two elder sisters generally, bat they had a shindy, and sbe thought it better to leave them for a while. I bad always been terribly shy and uncomfortable with ladies, but she came and talked to ine, and set me at ease the first evening. She told me about ber sisters, snd asked my advice. It was tbc first time any one bad treated me so j decidedly as a man, and no doubt ahc- ] thought me older than I was; for I was , six feet high, and had undoubted whiskers, for ag my hair is black they showed. Of course she was a good deal my senior, or she would not be allowed to go about the world alone like that; but she was the pleasantest girl I had ever met, arid we got on together capitally. We spent the morn ings on the beach, sat next each other at dinner, went partners at cards. When you are with most people, you know, you are at a loss sometimes what to say next. Well, we never felt that; however long we were at it, our conversation did not flag. I suppose that may have been partly j because we talked so much about ourselves; but the result was that I liked her society uncommonly, awl when she flirted with an old half-pay officer, who had dyed, not for his country, but for his vanity, I longed to ounch his painted head. Aunt Bonwick quizzed me, and told me to mind what I was about; that boarding houses were terrible places for man-traps, and 1 might get snapped up before I was aware. I replied there was no danger, for I was sure that Clara would not have time if I asked he. "Very good," replied my aunt; "but for gracious sake, my dear George, don't put it to the proof!" Aunt Bonwick's head was always run ning on marriages and the gossip connected with the subject—she was a first-rate part ner to divide the Time* with, for give her the supplement and you might have all the rest. So I laughed at the alisurdity of ber seeing a match in such an ordinary bit of acquaintanceship; and yet, somehow, when I next met Clara I felt more awkward than I had done hitherto; and just as I was getting over this shyness, the bathing woman patronised by Clara inf#rpied us that we made as handsome a couple as ever she see—a compliment which was wofully confusing. You will think that I spent my whole time in dangling, but that was not the FRKD. KURTZ, Kditor uid Pwjriotor. VOL. IV. ease. The coast at t'arfav i* iwkr, atul in a little cove about halt a tittle from the Pantile I had a boat, in which I was in the habit of rowing or Bailing daily; and high uo on the tteach there was a hut a mk t of dctaciied'lugh aud dry cabin belonging to the lawt and let with it, where the uarv etc., were kept—and here I used sometime* to read and practice smoking—a luxury which I had not an yet learned to eujoy thoroughly. One very hot afternoon 1 went down to this lank, with the intention of |iaddling out a little way, and then having a bathe; but after dragging the boat down to the water' edge, 1 found tliat I had left the key id the hut liehind ine, and without the key 1 could not get the oar*. The sailor ' who owned the three boats which formed the Carfax pleasure tleet had gone out with a party, so that I could not get his key ; and being too hot and laiv to go !ack for my own, I got into the lioat, made myself comfortable in the bows under the sail, which covered uie over like a tent, ! pulled a bk'k out of mv pocket, and began to read. Whether it was the fault at the author or not, 1 cannot say, but I fell aale.fi, and very sound 1 nur>t have been, | for on waking i could not tell at the mo ment where I was. When tuy faculties returned a little, however. 1 looked at my watch, and fouud that I had ln#?i asleep four hours, and it was time to go home and get ready for dinner. So I struggled out of the folds of the sail, and saw water, water all muhkl ! The shore was a good mile off, and the boat was drifting further aud further away every minute. 1 also discovered that I was uot alone; a female figure revised in the stern, the head con cealed bv a large sunshade, but the dress seemed familiar. 1 approached: it was Clara, fast a-leep, just as 1 had Ix-eu, and overpowered bv a similar soporific, for a book had talleu from her hand aud lay ou ber lap. " By Jove f I cried aloud, in my con sternation, and the exclamation startled her. " What is it ? Where atn I ?" she asked, opening her eyes and sitting up. "Why we are at sea ! Oh, what a shameful trick ! What will the people say ? Put me on shore at once." I protested and explained, she followed suit. She had taken a walk, been over come with heat, and sought rest in the boat, of course not knowing that it was mine, or that any man was in it, as I was completely hidden by the sail. The rest was easily imagined: the tide had cotne up and flttated the boat, which had I teen car ried off by a tremendous current, which renders that part of the coast most danger ous for incaut*ous bathers. u I am afraid that we shall hardly get back in time for dinner,'' said Clara. "1 am afraid not." replied 1. 14 But please begin rowing at once," pleaded she. *• There are no oars," said I. 44 Oh dear! oh dear! Then sail." I stepped the mast and hoisted the sail, to look like trying, but as there was not a breath ol wind, of course it was all of no use, except that it temporarily and par tially pacified my companion, whose no tions of navigation were vague. At the end of half an hour, however, she could not help perceiving that our distance from Par fax wa quite doubled, and I had to own that ililess a breeze sprang up we were helpless, though at the same time I assured her that directly the boat-keeper returned he would find out that I was awav with out oars; and when we were missed at the boarding-house, and inquiries made, he would know what had happened, and that we were certain to be rescued. "Oh," she cried, "if it were only that! But people won't believe—people will think—people will say—ob. dear ! I had almost sooner be drowned than eo back !" She altered her opinion on this point, however, when night fell, and there were no signs of rescue. 1 did not fee! comfor table myself, in spite of my confident talk. No doubt boats "were put out in search of us, but the sea is big, and so small a craft l as ours soon gets out of sight ; and where I that plaguy current might carry us to Neptune only knew—Neptune or l)a.y Jones, proprietor of the Ixickcr. The pos sibility of cruising about in this way with : Clara, till I wanted to eat her, was trying; the tceling that I was alone with her under such very solitary circumstances was, after the remarks of my aunt and the bathing woman, still more distressing to tl.e nerves. To keep a better countenance, I tried to i treat the situation from a jwasc point of view. What did people au in open !>oats after shipwreck ? I asked, and remember ed that sometimes they canght boobies and noddies. Boobies (present rni|ny excepted) were not visible, but I might catch fisn. I had a little locker in the boat, containing a bachelor's kettle, rcsined firewood, a few bifcuit-s, a stone jar of fresh water, a sardine-box with two sardines left in it, and some fishing lines. A sar dine made bait, and I fished. After book ing three dog-fish and a conger eel, I caught a nondescript who looked eatable. Then, giving him a humane time to die in, I lit a square of firewood under the kettle, which was filled with salt water (a dodge I bad learned). While it was ladling I performed the happy despatch upon poor nondescript, and then crammed him into the kettle. All this diverted and reassured iny companion, who condescended to taste nondescript with biscuit ; and really he was very good. I know we made a skele ton of him between us. But all this little excitement and forced spirits died away as the night advanced, and the situation became inexpressible. Clara did awful things; ahc burst out laughing in the middle of crying, so that 1 thought she was having n game with me; but then she shed actual tears, and said bits of her prayers so that could hardly be. I did all I could think of to console her, but it was a long time before I aucceded ;; what I thought waa, '"Well Master George, you have gone and nailed yourself no*-, and no mistake P' We were engaged. At two o'clock in the morning a light lireeze sprang up, and I knew we were all ! right. The lignts of Upper Carfax were ! still visible, and formed a sure beacon to steer by. I beached the boat at eleven o'clock, while the band was playing as nual on the pier, and all the people listening to it, and we excited much interest. I was rather anxious to keep our engagement a secret for the present, but Clara explained that under the circumstances that could not be, and all Carleton Mansion knew it by luncheon time. Aunt Bonwick laughed at first, and then got very angry. She called me an idiotic cub, and was very rude to Clara. The next day I bad to go home to my guardian, who was very satirical; and all this scold ing and sneering made me stick up for Clara the tnore heartily. But I was glad when the time came for me to go back to my private tutor, and escape from the per petual unpleasantness. I have oniy seen Clara once since, at the Royal Academy; but she writes to me every week, and I answer her letters, though not quite regu larly, I am afraid. I thought she looked rather older when I saw her at the Acade my ; not that that has anything to do with it, but—l am only nineteen now, and it seems so absurd, you know. A CENSUS ITEM.—A Marshal in Ohio makes the following indorsement on one of his iwturns, the names only being fic titious : "John Thomas, County, Ohio. Age 96. I found this man to-day in his field cutting wheat. He told me he was now living with his third wife, and he thought it would take another besides this to take him through. CENTRE HALL REPORTER. Hew* of Practical Holler-Maker*. The Steam llotler-Mitkera" Heuevulent ! Association held it special meeting in New.York to inquire into the cause of explosions. John Meltride t 'hair man. characterised the present v teut of boiler-making and inspection unwise and uttaafe. No ui*u should be a boiler-iuapeotor who is not a practical boiler-maker. The- durability aud strength of the material ordered iu lk>il ers are tai often mu'ritli-ol to cheapness. He himself had often seen it so laid that he thought it was wrong to put audi a sheet in, but he could say nothing. The boiler of the Wee til eld was uot tit to run. |it was so old. Then tin system of test ing by hydrostatic pressure is injurious, for every year tliat it is done it strains the iron to its utmost limit, low ' the seams apart, and then, if it com mences to leak, they put ilia short patch, perhaps an eighth of an meh thick, which stops the leak, and does not iu I the least stieugtheii the boiler. Mr. Sullivan, an old boUsr-makqy from MttseachUßcttaand Maine, had often been told by engineers, when he went to rejuiir a Uiiler in a sliip, that he need only patch it enough to last them that > one trip, especially if they lunl a pros peruus trip in prospect, alter which au otinr patch would have to be put on. It was reasonable to suppose that the iron on both sides of the fracture must lip bud. He had looked at the Isiilwr of the Westfield, and believed that it ex ploded, not from want of water, but on I mvouut of its age. The iron appeared , to have been, w hen first manufactured > for the sheet, bent over where it was ! burst out, and did uot crack as it would have doue had the iron been defective. A boiler-maker ami repairer present intorjaieod tluit it is sometimes OH much the fault of incapable engineers, as boil er inspectors, as a general tiling, were not conversant with all the parts of a boiler, so as to know where to look for the weak points, lu regard to the West field, he believed the strongest part of the boiler blew up. When a boiler has been in use eight or nine years, it is the inside lining that first giveaway, usually, but he found in this case it was the lutek head of the boiler which gave wav and ton* the inside lining. He consid ered the aocident, therefore, the fault of the operators. Michael Donohue also thought a boil* er iniH*.*tor should be a tioilcr-maker, and not merely an engineer or machinist. Tin* talk aliout patches w;m all nonn*iise. The boiler is wade up of patches. You sorely would not rip up a ship's deck hi put iu a new boiler every time it needed strengthening. It must la* repuimlwith patches. Any good boiler-maker can examine a lauler and with his hammer detect its weak points with less difficulty and less detrim<*ut to the Iwiler tliiui by hydrostatic pressure. Peter H. Donohue of Brooklyn, dis agreed flatly with the views of all the cxjierts in the Westfield boiler examin ation. They all suv it blew out at the side. I behove, said he, that the boiler gave way iu the braces at the lwck end, or tap bolts, la-cause it blew out in a horizontal line' at the front of the boat. The cous*quejiee of these braces giving way wis that there was not enough strength on the frout in the tap liolt* to sustain that flat surface on the liock end of the boiler. In one place iu that boiler there is a space of 98 square inches without a brace! 1 never saw so much space in my life, said he, betw*en braces on a lnuler, as I saw on tlmt I*nit. 1 don't blame the engi neer. Mr. Matthews is colled a first class engineer, but he is not a first-claas boiler inspector. Neither he nor any other (toiler inspector ever goes right into the man-hole to see when* the ltoil er has corroded and is weak, for it is the interior of the Itoiler that is first affect ed. In this inquest they will find out that it was the fault of the boiler-maker. Then* an* pins run through the braces to hold them which ought always to be split at the end, so that it can l*e fon*ed apart after lieiug driven in, and hold the brace finnly, and now I have seen a pin in the boiler of the \V*stfiell that never wrus split. No boiler insjieetor if he did his duty, would allow this. The boiler again was too old to ln*ar a pres sun* of 4<> jHiumls. The meeting adjourned, after a rcso lutiou that boiler-makers alone could properly test a boiler. How they Telegraph Chinese, The managers of the China Submarine Telegraph Comjauiy have solved the somewhat difficult problem of how to transmit telegraphic messaged in Chi nese. At first sight the difficulty of tele graphing in a language which is destitute of an alphaliet, and is made up of nliout fifty thousand distinct characters, ap |>ears almost insurmountable, but the obstacle lias lwen overcome, and A-fat at Hong Kong encounters no more difficul ty in communicating by telegraph with A-chutn at Shanghai than does Brown and Jones under similar circumstances. The plan adopted is this : Some few thousand of the more c:romon Chinese characters are cut on wooden blocks after the manner of typo. nnd on the reverse and of each is a numlier cut in the same way. Now A-fat having handed in his message written in Chinese, the native clerk selects in order the corres|>otiding blocks from the case and prints off the numbers on their reverse. This he hands to his English colleague, who telegraphs the numiiers to the destination desired. Here the reverse process is gone through, nnd the numbers, having been taken from the case* the characters ore stamp ed on pfljier, and thus A-clium is nut IU possession of the cherished wisiiea of A-fat through the medium of his native language. HEALTHY CHILDREN.—To mine healthy children give them an abundance of out door exercise, fun and frolic ; make them regulnr in their bahitn, and feed them on plain, nourishing food. But keep them overtasked in school, confined closely to the house the rest of the time, frowning down every attempt at play ; feed them upon rich or high seasoned food, can dies, nuts, Ac., allow them to eat Ixv tween uieals and late in the evening, and von need not expect them to lie healthy. Don't cram them with food when they don't want, or have no appetite for it— such a connie is slow murder. If they have no appetites, encourage, and, if need be, command them to take exercise in the open air. Do not allow them to stndy too much, and especially keep them from reading the exciting light lit erature which so much altouuds in our book stores and circulating libraries. A SUDDEN SHOCK.—An Illinois man has been in the Jacksonville Insane Asylum for about two years tinder treat ment, but a few days ago he wns pro nounced hopelessly incurable, and sent home. On arriving, he spoke to his girls and said, " Well, girls, von are keeping house alone, are you ?" When his wife entered the room, he started as if from a dream, throwing both hands to his head fressing it, exclaiming, "My God, Jane, thought you were dead ; is it indeed you?" and seemed completely overcome by his emotions. The shock did more for him than medical aid could do. He recovered his reason entirely and thus far retains it. A man in Portsmouth, N. H., named his two children Ebenezer and Flora, and always spoke of them as "Eb" and "Flo." ('ENTHE HALL, CENTRE' CO., HA., FRIDAY, AUGUST 25, 1871. To Voting Men Lite Honestly. Every young man, as he enters iijmiii life, sluaiid Like an tuvotuil with him- M-lf, it ml divide iu his own iiiiml Upoll the course which he will pursue. Ho should ask himself, " Wdl I entei upon a course in which 1 can render a fair equivalent for everything that I obtain ? or will 1 enter upou a course iu which, for the things that I receive, 1 shall render an equivalent where 1 must, and palm offempty spiearuucis where 1 cau?" It is a glorious nuibitiou, a manly pur pose, wtlh which a person Itegius life, when he goes forth saying, '• 1 meau to make my fortune, to be sure, ami to pluck honor from the highest lsmghs of the tree of life ; but 1 am determined not to go one step in honor or wealth or istwer that is not a real stop. What I tave, I will pay for. I will not take any thing without giviug a fair equivalent for it" Ami what a contrast thorn is Isitwoeu this aud thw ambition and pur po-v of those who nut out in life with a determination to make their fort uue and gain honor at all luurardx, by whatever means it may bo necessary to employ, and without regard to whether they rerder an equivalent for that which tliwy receive no not ? A young man, delicately reaml, is sent into life, ami he goes into a shop where he finds many companions, and where, unfortunately, the strongest-minded men are not tho sweetest-hearted. And all around about him the conversation is low ; the allusions are coarse, the expres sions are vulgar. The things tliat in home life he never dared to *ha;>c into words, or hiut* even, ire freely handled for the purpose of exciting laughter. Now, umler such circiimstaucos, a man may lose sensibility to these things. At first he is shocked ami sick. 1 hare known js-notts of an orgnnixntiou so delicate that this violence doue to their moral and social feelings amounted to alvtolute sickness of lxtdy. Rut that can uot continue. In the course of a mouth a young man will get tua*l to olmeeuity in one of two ways. If he seta his heart against it; if he calls tho memory of all tliat he loves to his help ; if his w hole conscience War* witness ; if he makes a covenant with his li|t*, and sets his heart to watch over its issues, then little bv little ho will come to a state iu which he w ill hear obscene talk as though lie did not hear it. Aud he comes out better than he went in, although he suffer* U*-j by tho outward contact of corruption than iu the Uigin ning. He has carried himself in such a way with reference to it, tliat it ha* worked out in moral purity. I was called once to a consultation in reference to a young man belonging to a large establishment, who wa* detected in some criminal act; and in a confidential interview tliat 1 had with hiui, he told me that it was not because ho a as ill need that ho viclded to the U-mptatiou, but liecatue Vie wanted property. Hi* dis honesty was simply the result of avarice. And if n young man abuses his trust snd is dishonest, there is not a word to Iw said in his justification. There are temptations to dishonesty, then, that spring from extravagance. Our society is very vicious in its whole structure in this regard. We make uo provision for the ivsjwctabiiity of people who are in hunilile circumstance*. We hold out inducements to them to live Ite voud their means. Young people want to lie gin further along than they arc able to. They want to keep house as twenty years of succ-m ful auil fruitful industry have enabled other men to do it. They measure every thing on the pattern of somebody elae. There are many young men who have enough to support them ; but that is not all that they want. They have bad com panions with whom tliey associate. These companions are not very temperate. They smoke; and so, of course, thov drink. I do not mean that among ail men that smoke, drinking is a handmaid vice; but 1 say that smoking leads, or tends to lead, to the other vice. And smoking and drinking are very expen sive. Young men are very apt to reason the question of dishonesty with themselves, and to justify themselves by tho examples which they see around about them of men who stand eminent, trusted, and of good reputation, and who yet do dis honest things. A voting man is apt to say, "It is no worse for me to follow such and such courses, than it is for others; and many that do follow tln-in stand high, and are prospered and re spected-" I will admit that there are many men who stand high, and for a time have a certain kind of resjxH-tability and jros iierity, though tliey do dishonest things ; but I say this : You cannot afford to lie like them. There is nothing else in this world tluit is of so much consequence to yon, as that you should keep jieace with your own self. Blessed be the man that can say, as the apostle did, " I trust that I have a good conscience." Blessed l>e the man that has lived till he is thirty years of age, and can say, "1 hrfVe a good conscience that is "I never willingly do anything that violates iny eonseienoe. God knows that it is my purpose to live at peace with my conscience." A man cannot afford to throw nwny the blessing of a good conscience. And it makes no difference that your neigh lior is prospering by dishonesty, and jieople have not found him out. If you are dishonest you know it yourself, and that i* enough. And there ought to lie a principle of honor with every young man that should lead him to any, " Even if God could not see me when I did wrong, I should see myself, and self respi-et and manhood require that I should do right."— Henri/ Wart!

We have Itoen told before that scorpions would commit suicide if thev found themselves hemmed in with trouble and affliction in the shape of a blazing fire ; and now we are given to understand that even the pretty, innocent birds will, on occa sion, commit the abominable crime of infanticide. The story is told of a fine brood of goldfinches in the garden of a rectory in Bedfordshire, Englnnd, which was taken captive, and confined in a cage while atill in the nest. The parent birds still supplied food for their young, and they were thriving well until they were nearly ready to fly. The old birds find ing tfien that they were not to lie allowed to get out of the cage, brought them poi sonous seeds, and the whole brood died in a single night. HEAI.INO PROPERTY OP Hons.—Under the nnme of oil of eggs a preparation is prescribed in aome parts of Englaml and on the continent of Europe as an emol lient for sore nipples ami excoriations, and it is sometimes called for in this country. It may be prepared by gently heating yolks of eggs until they coagu late and the moisture evaporates ; then breaking into fragment*, digesting in bgiling alcohol, filtering while hot, and evaporating. A dozen eggs yield about an ounce. It is in general use among colo nist* of South Russia as a means of cur ing cut*, bruises and scratches. The white of an egg has proved of late most efflca ious in curing burns. Seven or eight applications of this substance soothes pain and eflectuallv excludes the air from the burn. Tliis simple remedy seems preferable to collodion. Marriage With a Unerased Wife's Slsler, The following extracts are from a letter nldrmrJ by the Rev.

I submit this cannot be, Ixe-nuse we know for a fact that bigamy was prac ticed to a much later i>eriod by those who were tsmud by tliv lajvitical laws —and also in Deuteronomy, chapter twouty-oue, fifteenth verse - part of the mvouil giving of the law—aud therefore later bigamy is recognised ** existing, and for a certain contingency growing out of it, and surely that would not be actually legislated fur which, had I wen but a short time before positively for bidden. Then, it is said, that in tits eighteenth chapter of Leviticus ami sixteenth verse, marriage with a brother's wife is forbid den, and by '* parity of reasoning " (a wonderful phrase) the same relationship is included on the other side.

" For wiu# time tin* Hindoos hare Wn agitating agaiust the butcher* of Umritsur to obtain a de cree forbidding tho (daughter of cattle and tho sale of beef in the citj. Their efforts failed ch tolly through the firm noss of tho ComtnisMoner and the strength of the English and Muasulman part? in tho Committee. Early one morning, alsrnt one or two o'clock, a party of armed Hindoo* assembled and made a deacont upon I'mritaur slaugh ter-house and attacked the butchera sleeping outside. The murderers were nrqprd witli ■word* and broad-axes, and the butchers boiitg unnmud and asleep, were unable to aare themselves. Four butchera were literally hacked to pieces, and two others were o fearfully cut up that one has since died and the other * life is despaired of. The night was a vsry dark one, and it will be difficult to recognize the murderer*. Accounts vary as to the *oct they belonged to. From some indications found on the scene of the massacre, it is suspected that the murderers belong to the Nihnng aeot. But another account state* that the Akalies were suspected. The Aka lies are a sort of fanatic Sikhs, a somi saccrdotal claas attached to the temples.

The affair, as may l>c anticipated, has caused some ex citement. as it ia expected tluit the mat ter will not eud hero.

A STRONG LAW.— According to the De troit Tribune, the liquor law of Michi gan ia the most stringent state law on that subject which has yet been enacted. The Tribune says : " It should be borne in mind, by those who drink, that under the amended liquor-law of the state, now in force, any person who is found drink ing in any saloon,tavern or public place, or in the streets, is liable to a fine of $3 nnd cost*, or imprisonment for not more than twenty days."

He hadn't any mast to climb, but in the absence of a mast he would "climb" a younger brother, or any neighbor's boy who wasn't quite his aise. But he sighed for other climbs. He was imsistiblv inclined to rainble, so much so tliat he rambled in his speech, his ideas being all ahead. When at last he announced his determination to go for a sailor, his father endmvored to dissuade luro from iL " Why," said the old man with tears in his eves and a choking voice—"why go tor a sailor when there are so many other people to go for who have money ?
